Jesus That was quick, ABC 24 only mentioned that this morning as breaking news that he was in Hospital.

We all have to go one one day... RIP.

 

[Sharaz]

He was an amazing man so sad

 

[XLNC]

No matter what one thinks of boxing as a sport, he was a class act.

This song was a favourite of mine four decades ago.

Mate your exactly correct, without question he was indeed a class act. Very unique in almost everything I would imagine. I take my hat of to the man...

As His XLNC said no matter your view on boxing (I'm anti)
You have to admire the man

I guess his toughest fight apart from Parkinson's must have been with the draft board Saying no to going to Vietnam must have been a true test of his beliefs

Mohammed Ali passed away aged 74

Famous photo of Ali standing over Sonny Liston (I believe). He is actually quoted as yelling "get up, I'm not done with you yet" or words to that effect. The raw brutality, aggression, class, skill, physical courage, humanity and beauty in one man's life. Simply remarkable. RIP

 

[homer]

Another Legend. RIP

 

[Ranjeeh]

A boxer, nothing more and nothing less.

 

[ampmassageboy]

He became far more and far better after the boxing career ended not that he wasn't the greatest boxer that ever lived, but his work for others that came after is his legacy.

 

[Fond Goodbye]

Rocky Marciano, the greatest boxer of all time!!
